802.11n is nothing more than bonding on a previous standard. Almost every access point/router implementation of 802.11n is using the 2.4GHz spectrum because it's backward compatible with b/g and thus cheaper to make. You get much better throughput if you run 802.11n on the 5GHz spectrum but the range is significantly more limited. I've only see a couple of AP's that support the 5GHz range which we're quite expensive.
You can verify this statement by reading up on the 802.11n specification document or better yet, check out the summary provided by
Cisco.
